Member Testimonials: Hear Their Stories

mike brookes

“I’ve enjoyed getting involved and learning while doing.  It was one of the aspects of the initial Angels for Climate Solution Challenge that I enjoyed.  We all had a small financial stake in the investment we were considering so it made the learning exercises Spring led us through much more relevant and impactful.”

Mike Brooks
Business Leader, Growth Adviser & Spring Collective Member

Upcoming Programs Included in Collective Membership

Invest Together in Women-Led Impact (previously the Women-Led Impact Investor Challenge) brings purpose-driven founders together with like-minded, supportive impact investors to learn about impact investing as a joint cohort.

Whether you’re curious about impact investing, or an experienced impact investor seeking to level up your gender-lens investing, this educational opportunity gives you hands-on learning and connections that last well beyond the program. One Invest Together program is included in your membership.

Foundations in Startup Investing is one-week virtual program that will ground you in the role of an investor. Five short daily sessions will show you how to evaluate investment opportunities and combine your existing skill set with your capital to step into venture funding.

The next session is Foundations in Climate Innovation Investing and it starts March 17th, 2025.
